Unravelling the expression patterns of the CCO gene family in Barley (Hordeum vulgare) under various stress conditions
Carotenoid cleavage oxygenases (CCOs) are non-heme iron-dependent enzymes that catalyze the oxidative cleavage of carotenoids and play important roles in the biosynthesis of apocarotenoids involved in plant growth, development, and stress responses. However, a comprehensive genome-wide characterization of the CCO gene...
